- “This is where this developer shines - good story, lots of interesting characters with unique abilities, well-balanced gameplay, turn-based system, lots to explore... took me about 37 hours to complete.”
- “The storyline is very good; many twists and turns will keep you on your toes.”
- “Embark on the whimsical journey of Violet Kingdom, masterfully crafted by Wolfs Moon Studios, where Princess Violet's adoption story takes center stage in a royal symphony of multiple character storylines converging into an epic final battle.”
- “The one downside is that, although the story tells you where to go next consistently, if you don't remember where to go, there is often very little direction.”
- “The story about three kingdoms in a constant state of (soon not-so-)cold war and about one king's adopted daughter and her mysterious origin (Violet) is enjoyable, but it contains a nasty early-game twist and the usual even more sinister threats later on.”
- “There is a story too, and some NPCs are quite humorous, especially if you enjoy sarcastic humor.”

Players note that while grinding is a component of the game, it is manageable and often made easier by the availability of experience-boosting gear. The game appeals to those who enjoy character development and story, with grinding serving as a means to enhance the overall experience rather than a tedious requirement.
- “It took me 27 hours to complete my run, and although I did most of the side quests, I didn't try to do all of them. I also didn't end up leveling up characters much or grinding extensively. I had to grind a small amount for the final boss, but the game provides extremely good grinding gear by that point, so it didn't take long to get a character to ~1500% experience per battle.”
- “If you are a sucker for good stories, great character development, and grinding, this is the game for you.”
- “This game is mainly aimed at folks that enjoy grinding up levels through exploring and battles.”
